SUMMARY:
Long ago, Arthur Poole built a grand house overlooking the turbulent ocean in a Maine village that bore his name. Today, Sonya MacTavish lives in that house―a manor that has been cursed for generations. Within its walls, she has witnessed the deaths of seven brides and the thefts of seven wedding rings. And now, to break the curse and banish a malevolent spirit once and for all, a difficult task must be completed.

After Sonya, her boyfriend, Trey, and their friends are forced to hear, see―and feel―the suffering of the house’s many ghosts as their torment is reenacted by the evil presence, their bond only strengthens and their anger is renewed. Refusing to let her spirit be broken, Sonya searches each room for clues to her ancestors’ hidden story, putting the picture together, unearthing small treasures, and uncovering the moments of joy that existed among the sorrows. She’s determined to bring light to this haunted place―to fill it with people, with life and hope, once again.

But the enemy in the black dress continues to hover, to come at her in frightening forms. They may be illusions―but illusions can be powerful enough to wound and kill. She feeds on fear, and lies are her weapon. This dark-hearted witch wants to be mistress of Poole Manor, at any cost. And Sonya will need to fight a battle across two realms to finally take possession of the house on the clifftop―and of her own future…

The Seven Rings by Nora Roberts Review

This is a book that you absolutely should not read until you read book one and book two. I know that is not going to be a hardship because the books are so engrossing!

The story is a combination of contemporary fiction, romance, with the additional thrill that includes the paranormal haunting of a house.

It’s not haunted by one person, but by multiples, and they’re all amazing characters that have been developed throughout the three books.

The human characters are just as exciting and are tied together, resulting in a book you just do not want to put down.

The pacing in The Seven Rings is classic Roberts style, where she slowly pulls you in and continues to ramp up the suspense and anxiety the further you get into the story.

Balancing everything out are personal relationships and watching the characters build and grow throughout the story. The budding family ties and romance aspect envelop the paranormal, leading up to a fascinating conclusion that amazingly ties everything in a bow.

The series, The Lost Bride Trilogy, has been a winner for me, and all of the books are complete. This series would be great to reread, one book at a time, for the complete impact.

As expected, The Seven Rings offers an awesome story, fabulous suspense, and perfect timing for that season of spookiness we get to experience in the fall. Definitely grab this one!

5 STARS!!
